Description

This is a database for RimPy Mod Manager. You need to download an app to actually use all of it benefits (check Download section below). Database contains latest information about mods and latest versions of community made auto sorting rules. You should not put Database in your active mod list, because it contains o useful data for game itself, only data needed for RimPy Mod Manager.
The benefits of RimPy are as follows:

  • Automatic mod sorting
  • Manual mod sorting (move up/down, drag/drop)
  • Mod list management (create, save, load different mod lists)
  • Mod update log (shows which mods recently updated)
  • Mod filtering (name, author, mod path, packageId, color code or supported game version)
  • Mod context menu (open folder/url, change color, create sorting rule, etc...)
  • Steam and Local modpack creation
  • Mod pack management (install several mod packs and run them independently with different settings)
  • Run game from the Rimpy Mod Manager
  • Rimworld Mod Downloader from Steam Workshop (for non-steam versions of the game)
  • Rimworld Mod Updater (for non-steam versions of the game)
  • Notifications and checks to make changes as safe as possible
  • Windows and Linux support (Debian tested)

RimPy Mod Manager使用指南——集排序、管理、下载于一身的优秀工具


DO NOT EXPECT RIMPY TO SORT YOUR MODS ACCORDING TO WELL KNOWN GUIDE!!!
It will sort them differently and that is normal behaviour, read below about how sorting will be done.

First: Alphabetically
This allows mod lists to be standardized and will help with bug reports.
Contrary to some belief, alphabetized mod lists are 100% ok.
Every mod must be loaded according to a few things:
-Known dependencies are loaded above their dependent mods (Library mods like Harmony for example)
-Known conflicting mods are loaded above/below each other as specified by author/s
-Known incompatible mods are not loaded together

Second: Reads Vanilla Data
This is the information in the About.xml
This is the same information the Vanilla auto-sort feature uses.

Third: Manifest Files from Fluffy's Mod Manager
Some mods still support these files, but may be considered obsolete due to the newer vanilla sorting features.

Fourth: Steam Data
When a mod author states a mods' dependencies on Steam, RimPy reads it.
This may be considered outdated or inaccurate in some cases.

Fifth: Custom and Community Rules
Rules made by users like you!
Reviewed and then submitted into this mod.
This is also when your own locally made custom rules are implemented.
That means you can make RimPy sort mods however you want, automatically, once you make your own rules.


If you have problems with RimPy try these steps:
- Restart PC
- Reinstall videocard driver
- Report bugs at this link

I get errors when I enable this mod. Fix it!
This Steam mod contains the database of rules that modders and the community have made. Download the mod and keep it unloaded for the database, or choose not to use it.


Fluffy
For his great mods. This program uses Manifest.xml files implemented by him with Mod Manager. The pioneer in autosorting, before RimWorld and Ludeon even had it.

If you read the description, you'd have realized that RimPy is a mod manager program you download from GitHub (the link is right there near the top under DOWNLOAD). And yes, that program allows you to use manually installed mods.

What you're on the page of is a database RimPy uses as part of its autosorting algorithm. RimPy automatically uses its information for that purpose without the need for it to be active.

Ok, I did read it twice guys, twice. So First, does this mod allow downloading and using manually installed mods (for several reasons I like doing this, saves many games.)

Second, This mod is a mod you download to NOT use in you mod list????? Then how does it function?

Not very well explained, but best educated developer guess was to right click the mod in rimpy, open folder, overwrite the files in the db folder to the database folder in the local rimpy folder. Would be really cool if RimPy was a steam software app so users would not have to be developers to figure this out.

Works perfect for me on Manjaro Linux. User experience likely based on brain texture.

If you are using the Downloader does it make sense to just choose the already existing steamCMD executable location at setup?

Why does this crash so offten on linux? I cant even load a mod list.
Deadmano Nov 17 @ 5:08am 
If the file "RimPy Mod Manager Database" does not need to be loaded in the Active list, and it does get loaded, how about adding a warning or simply not allow it being added in the first place/not even have it show up? The fact that it even exists can be confusing for some.
